I have this posted over on ADVRider but any info from folks here would be appreciated.
I've been looking at a trip to the Catskills and am wondering if I can get some local knowledge/feedback on what appears, on paper, to be some great back roads of the unpaved kind up there.
Wondering if these are mostly gravel, vs. something sand/dirt?
What is it like in the Spring, and when does the mud get out?
What about places to camp? Is stealth camping a possibility?
Is there a black fly season, if so when?
Any resource to check-in on local conditions, road closings...?
Are there any good trip reports out there?
:question:
Many Thanks, dean ::001::
